Article 7 - Non-Discrimination
- There shall be no unlawful discrimination in the application of the provisions of this Agreement with regard to race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, sex, sexual orientation, or status as a Vietnam-era veteran. To the extent required by law that is applicable to the University, the provisions of the Agreement shall be applied to all members of the unit without regard to marital status, handicap, medical condition, status as a disabled veteran, age, or citizenship. Medical condition means any health impairment related to or associated with a diagnosis of cancer, for which a person has been rehabilitated or cured based on competent medical evidence. The provisions of this Article are not subject to the Arbitration Article of this Agreement except to the extent that a complaint alleges a violation of a specific Article of this Agreement which is subject to arbitration.
- Nothing in this Article shall be construed to prevent an employee alleging discrimination from exercising Constitutional or statutory rights which may be available. In the event, however, that an employee or a group of employees elects to file a complaint alleging unlawful discrimination, with an external agency or court(s), the Arbitration procedure set forth in this Agreement will not be or will no longer be available.
